You'll most likely be arrested and tried. If convicted (likely, as you said "if you assault someone", not "if you are accused of assault"), you'll be sentenced and may be sent to prison.

There's no law that says "Every dog gets one bite" or anything like that. You may get a lesser sentence if it's a first offense, but this isn't guaranteed and depends on the judge and the circumstances (it may also depend on how good your lawyer is).
